Morgan said there are benefits for local business from getting behind the Jets.

“As a customer owned baking organisation we’re about supporting customers and community and a strong, successful local football team is good for our community,” Mr Morgan said.

“Helping the Jets to be more accessible to the community and to build its Membership base is good for The Greater and we hope it also inspires boys and girls to be active or to perform at the highest level in their chosen field,” he said.

Newcastle Jets now have over 7,000 Members ahead of the Hyundai A-League 2015/16 season.
